5 Key Steps

Once you’ve decided that it’s time to invest in a refresh for your exterior siding and given us a call to kick-off your project, we’ll work our way through the key steps that make up a siding project:

‍

1. An initial home inspection. When you request an estimate, we’ll set up a time for a professional estimator to visit your home. We’ll conduct a comprehensive home inspection to determine the current condition of your siding. We’ll identify what needs to be replaced and what can be repaired.
2. The demolition phase. We’ll remove the old siding that is too damaged to be salvaged. Demolition varies based on the home. For smaller spaces like soffits and fascias, we’ll have to go more slowly. Throughout demolition, we’ll pay careful attention to the surrounding area, like your favorite flower beds or other existing vegetation. If you’ve got a lot of space around your home, we can take those siding panels down a bit faster. 
3. A look at what’s underneath. Once we’ve removed the existing siding, it’s important that we take a look at what we’re working with. We want to check that your home is prepared for the new siding before installation, such as having an existing house wrap.
4. Completing preparations. The last stage before installation includes cleaning up the site in preparation for installation. 
5. Installation! With all of the previous steps complete, it’s time to install your new siding. Once your siding is installed, it's then ready for paint or stain, if needed.

Please note that these are just the general steps involved in a siding installation project. The specific steps may vary depending on the type of siding you choose, the condition of your home, and additional environmental details.
